Together, we research and break down complex, and even controversial, topics facing our society. Our goal isn’t to convince you to see things our way. We want to build a foundational understanding of these complicated topics so that we can address them together. We talk about some pretty heavy stuff on this show, and we tackle topics that might feel polarizing. But we do that because we have an important goal in mind: We want to change the way people have hard conversations. And, we think we can do that using research and discussion to create common understanding. And, since you’re here, we hope you want the same thing. So we suggest getting comfortable, and maybe having a good drink on hand as we work through this stuff. Welcome to our fireside.

No show notes this week because... well, things hit the fan, to be honest. We tell you all about it in this week's episode. Guest Savannah Cannon discusses aspects of her time as a Marine serving in Afghanistan, and the impact the sudden reemergence of the Taliban has had on veterans.
If you would like to donate to help the family discussed in this episode, Savannah is currently using Venmo until the GoFundMe is authorized. You can donate to @Savannah-Cannon1. All funds go to assisting the family and providing food, shelter, and transportation as they work to establish a new life in America.
